Recovery and Other Fun Moments
20 Mar 2011 Leave a Comment
I am having a hard time with recovery as expected but my sweet Mother has made it much more bearable. The woman from my church were right there with me when I got home and one was even there (2.5 hours away from home) to see me right after surgery! My Husband was had a hard time being “there” for me in many ways and it killed me, I didn’t see him until 9 days post-op (after he left). When I got back he was cold, distant and didn’t help with anything. I think in a way he was mourning the loss and upset at me for causing him to miss his family vacation which was also suppose to be his 30th birthday celebration but what could I do about it? But really, trust me I have had enough struggle without the help of anyone else and having someone hurt me with words or actions killed me. But just like everything else, we got over it 
.
Fast forward to today, my incisions are healed on the outside but inside not so much…I am and will be in physical therapy for another 6 weeks at least. I was told that I will not be allowed to run for another 6 months. A normal person would be allowed to sooner but apparently I am not normal?!? Anyway I am getting over this and trying to get over the pain as well. It has been pretty severe and all I can say is at least I haven’t had to go to the ER for pain relief! I am doing well taking care of the kids and home, the house is very well-kept, the beds are made, dinner is served, the kids are bathed (as am I lol) and I am able to get the to and from school meaning I am not taking meds in the day. So I am doing as well as I can with 4 kids and limited help. Now that my Mother is gone my Husband is much more receptive to me and I would be LOST without my girlfriends from church…they are all over me and my kids!!
Speaking of my kids, here are some pics of how we have been killing our time!!
